Seems he may have reverted back to his old ways if it is him sadly, to be fair I hope it isn’t.
Is it really a sackable offence ?
I mean this happens every weekend all over the world and has done for decades
But now mobile phones which are the problem in todays world and why the world is knackered
Can't do anything without someone filming you or "facebooking it" which has caused a huge snowflake generation in todays world

The actual act isn't that big a deal. It's embarrassing for him, but that's about it. It's hardly the worst thing a rugby league player has ever done.
The bigger problems are firstly that he's married with a teenage daughter who has apparently seen the video, which must be terrible for her. And more importantly as far as Cas are concerned, it's a week before the start of the season when they are supposed to be on a drinking ban, and this is a guy with a lot of previous of this kind of lack of professionalism. They are making a mistake if they let it slide imo.

It may well be deemed as bringing his club and the sport in to disrepute and regardless of the rights/wrongs/morals of it being filmed and posted on social sadly for Westy he's put himself there. Taking the act he's been filmed doing out of the equation, I would imagine that Cas/Radford wouldn't expect a senior player to be 3 sheets to the wind this close to the start of a season either. I've not seen the video nor do I want to but someone I know has and they said its a pretty damning video and he looked hammered.
You only have to look at the NRL to see what has happened to players caught out in similar fashion as well as other sports.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Not sure the Cas statement means it will be brushed under the carpet I think its a short and blunt statement suggesting they are far from happy.
As for Westy he's a grade A idiot and I can not imagine what it must be like for his family be thrust in to something like this. Whatever an individual does in their own time is their own business however when it's something that has a far reaching impact on things such as an employer or the sport you etc the consequences of those actions become much greater.
As you say Zucchini, Westy has previous for unprofessional behaviour which it seemed he'd put behind him but sadly not.
